“What you get to choose today is who you are and who
you choose to be, and what you wish to experience in
your life. Remember, not to decide is to decide.”

The First Step to Taking Really Good Nature Photos
Remember to take the camera. That’s it. This first step to taking good nature photos is to take the camera with you. You will never get the perfect once in a lifetime shot if you are out in the woods and the camera is sitting at home an hour away. Don’t even ask how many I’ve missed — like all of our eagle sightings.
This post does not have a photo because of course… I forgot to take the camera.
Thought for Today
“Spirituality is not to be learned by flight from the world, or by running away from things, or by turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, we must learn an inner solitude wherever or with whomsoever we may be. We must learn to penetrate things and find God there.”
― Meister Eckhart

“Creativity is more than just being different. Anybody can plan weird; that’s easy. What’s hard is to be as simple as Bach. Making the simple, awesomely simple, that’s creativity” – Charles Mingus
